Hello all,

In a normal ipsec connection, what should be the values of ikelifetime
(phase-1) and keylife (phase-2).
Particularly whether ikelifetime > keylife, or ikelifetime < keylife ?

As per `man ipsec.conf`, default values for Phase -1 keylife is 1 hour and
Phase -2 keylife is 8 Hours.
Are they represent the recommended one?

Regards,
-hiren
